Open World Fantasy RPG in UE4: Open Positions for C++ Programmers and Game Designers
About Us
My name is Matt, and I'm a Co-Founder of Epoch Games. Epoch Games is a global, fully-online volunteer team developing The Lays of Althas: Sundered Order (LoA:SO), a single player, open-world, original low-fantasy RPG being developed in Unreal Engine for the PC. Currently there are 33 of us working on the game, but we are near to completing our first Demo.
At this time, we are particularly looking for C++ Game Programmers (previous Unreal Engine development experience is required, and AI experience is a plus) and Game Designers (Unreal Engine Blueprint Scripters). See below for more details.
The Lays of Althas: Sundered Order
LoA:SO, as mentioned, is a single player, open world RPG being developed for Unreal Engine 4. Althas is the name of the low-fantasy fictional continent that the game will take place on.
Ever since it's early history, Althas has been a land shaken by conflicts. In the early days, these conflicts pitted the Anointed Kingdoms of Men against dark and demonic forces that threatened them. However, with the passage of time, the world has changed: the Anointed order is eroding away and new powers are rising. Another war looms on the horizon, a war of personal and political motivation. Thenodar, a burgeoning new kingdom in the North, and Anorthile, one of the last of the three remaining Anointed Kingdoms, now prepare for a war that will shake all of Althas. Old demons and new enemies gather in the shadows of both lands as each sets their sights on the ruined wilderness known as The Feralands.

Open Positions
Please see the Jobs page for open positions on our team.
Keep in mind that, at this time, we are still a completely volunteer development team. Likewise, all of our open positions are volunteer and we cannot offer any monetary compensation at this time. When we begin receiving funding, we have a Revenue Share plan in place, where all developers on the team will earn a percentage of all revenue made by the project.
Application Process
If you're interested in joining our team, you can either post with you interest here, apply in the SmartRecruiters ads posted above (for the 3D Game Artist and Animator position), or you can send me an email with your portfolio of your work, a resume if you so choose, as well as a Skype ID you can be reached at, to [email protected]. If you look to have the skills we are looking for, the next step will be to arrange a Skype interview, and we'll play things out from there.
